Moores as mayor for the month of January, 1902, The action is dismissed at plaintift's sost. In the opinion Judge Keysor says: “It is conceded that the mayor took the oath preseribed by the legislature as found in weetion 1 of ohapter x of the Complied Btatujes, and; that be did not take the oath provided for by section 1, article xiv, of the constitution of this state; and it is also conceded by counsel on both sides in this casp-that It the mayor be mot a censtitu- | tional « flicer that, the Injunction prayed for must-be denied. “The constitution.of Nebrask tar as the - court has.been able to discover, no- where names mayors of fncorporated cities among the officers for which it provides; unless the mayor bé a police magistrate. Whatever may have been the function of magors of ¢ities In olden times, the offices of migyor and’ polide judge are now too clearly separated to warrant the court In finding that the framers of our constitutlon interided to embrace mayors in the term police magistrate. ‘The court is theretore ot the opuion ‘that the constitution does mot embrae mnyors ‘within.the term police magistrate which it employs, and that the constitution does not in express terms in- clude mayors of citles in the list of offices which it names. “Baction 12 of arljole v of the constitu- tion proyides that the governor shall have power to remove any officer, whom he may appoint In case of jncompetehcy and neg- lect of duty or malfeasance in ofice. Here again we find the language of the constitu- tion very bromd and general; but the su- preme wourt:in the case of State against Bmith, 35 Nebraska, 14, decided that this section applied ‘only to- officers: named- in the constitutlon. -The court is therefore of the ‘opinion that the words, executive and Judioial officers, as. used. in section 1 of article xiv of our constitution means only such executive and judiclal officers as the copstitution: ftself names or provides -for, and that the plaintiff is in error in his ar- | gument that the legislature is limited in providing for the terms and conditions o1 exeoutive offices whieh it itself creates.” e T e Te Cpre m Cold in One Day =~ take Laxative Bromo Quinine Tablets.
